Thanks for your answer.

I have checked that API2 for QVariant works by using isNull() as you said.

But, I cannot use API2 for QString.

This means that I must stick to API1 for QString, at least.

Will API1 support be continued in the next versions of PyQt?
Indeed, detecting NULL is for me very important.
